Bumblebee Dress Pattern Available!

It's here!!!!!  Thanks to my wonderful testers I can now announce that you can purchase and download the
Bumblebee Dress sewing pattern!

This is my first pattern for purchase....... it all started back in October 2012 when I sewed the first
"Bumblebee Dress" and it got it's name!
Click Here to read about it!


Now, I can offer it in sizes 3m-6 with several different variations!!! 
(It's funny to go back to my old posts and see how my photography has improved!!!)

 

View A has the adorable ruffle bodice with 3/4 length ruffle sleeves!

 

View B has the sweet neck ruffle that adds a special detail to the back and a fun skirt ruffle for exceptional twirling!

You can switch out sleeve options, bodice options, and skirt options!  

 

I want to see what you come up with!  Suzanne at Pattern Revolution and winterwonderingswanderingswhatnot.blogspot.com has started a "Link Party" where you can link up a picture of the version you have sewn!  I would love to see all the wonderful creations!

Before I show you some of the awesome tester photos I also wanted to let you know that I will work on larger sizes.  I'm not as comfortable with the measurements for older girls but I know that there are many of you out there that would be willing to test and help me make it work!  If you purchase the version today I will send you an updated sizing to include 6x-12.  It will take a while to make sure I have all the measurements and testing done but I will be sure to announce it on the blog when it's ready!  (And when I'm ready for testers!!!)

*****UPDATE SEPTEMBER 6******
Sizes 7-12 are complete!  The instant download will have sizes 3m-6 on pages 1-30 and sizes 7-12 on pages 31-41
